To begin operating in a country, the company conducts an analysis to see how many people are interested in the business, "as long as they can develop the business, there are countries like Brazil that do not allow it."
Its customers are mostly men, between 30 and 40, upper-middle class with average deposits of $ 7,000 (compared to $ 3,000 a few years ago). At first, its investors preferred fx day trading but lately increased their commodities trading and often hold portfolios over longer periods.
